Programming Interfacial Porosity and Symmetry with Escherized Colloids

February 22, 2024
Author(s)
Nathan Mahynski, Vincent K. Shen
We simultaneously design the porosity and plane symmetry of self-assembling colloidal films by using isohedral tiles to determine the location and shape of enthalpically interacting surface patches on motifs being functionalized. The symmetries of both the

Thermal Noise-Limited Laser Stabilization to an 8 mL Volume Fabry-Perot Reference Cavity with Microfabricated Mirrors

March 29, 2022
Author(s)
Charles McLemore, Naijun Jin, Megan Kelleher, James Hendrie, David Mason, Yizhi Luo, Dahyeon Lee, Peter Rakich, Scott Diddams, Franklyn Quinlan
Lasers stabilized to vacuum-gap Fabry-Perot optical reference cavities display extraordinarily low noise and high stability, with linewidths much less than 1 Hz. These lasers can expand into new applications and ubiquitous use with the development of

AbsorbanceQ: An App for Generating Absorbance Images from Brightfield Images

January 4, 2022
Author(s)
Stephen Zimmerman, Carl Simon Jr., Greta Babakhanova
The AbsorbanceQ app converts brightfield microscope images into absorbance images that can be analyzed and compared across different operators, microscopes and time. Absorbance-based measurements are comparable, which is useful when the aim is to

NEMI Tin Whisker Test Method Standards

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
I Boguslavsky, P Bush, E Kam-Lum, M Kwoka, J McCullen, K Spalding, K Vo, Maureen E. Williams
… formed under the sponsorship of the National Electronics Manufacturing Initiative (NEMI) to evaluate different …

Reversed Ethane/Ethylene Adsorption in Metal-Organic Frameworks via Introduction of Oxygen

February 1, 2020
Author(s)
Ling Yang, Wei Zhou, Hao Li, Ali Alsalme, Litao Jia, Jinping Li, Libo Li, Banglin Chen
Separation of ethane from ethylene is a very important but challenging process in the petrochemical industry. Finding an alternative method would reduce the energy needed to make the 170 million tons of ethylene manufactured worldwide each year. Adsorptive

Towards Standard Exoskeleton Test Methods for Load Handling

May 9, 2019
Author(s)
Roger V. Bostelman, Ya-Shian Li-Baboud, Ann Virts, Soocheol Yoon, Mili Shah
Exoskeletons are now being marketed by several manufacturers and yet there are currently no standard test methods to compare exoskeletons to task. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has been a key contributor to the formation of a

Characterization of Five-Hole Probes used for Flow Measurement in Stack Emission Testing

May 16, 2018
Author(s)
Iosif Isaakovich Shinder, Aaron Johnson, Michael R. Moldover, James Filla, Vladimir Khromchenko
We report progress towards the goal of reducing the errors in industrial smokestack flow measurements to 1 % by replacing S-probes with calibrated 3-D probes (i.e., probes that measure 3 components of velocity). NIST calibrated a commercially-manufactured

Overview of an Ontology-based Approach for Kit Building Applications

November 8, 2017
Author(s)
Zeid Kootbally, Thomas Kramer, Craig I. Schlenoff, Satyandra K. Gupta
The Agility Performance of Robotic Systems (APRS) project at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is using Web Ontology Language (OWL) ontologies for modeling in a robotic kitting workstation. The new technical idea for the APRS

Mobile Manipulator Performance Measurement Data

June 27, 2017
Author(s)
Roger V. Bostelman, YaShian Li-Baboud, Steven Legowik, Tsai H. Hong, Sebti Foufou
The National Institute of Standards and Technology, Intelligent Systems Division has collected data detailing the performance measurement of a mobile manipulator, i.e., an automatic guided vehicle (AGV) with onboard robot arm from two different

Devices in advanced technology nodes: application-specific characterization

May 21, 2017
Author(s)
gennadi bersuker, Dmitry Veksler, Donald Pierce, Maribeth Mason
Scaled advanced node devices incorporate new combinations of semiconductor materials and ultra-thin multi-layer dielectric stacks. As a consequence, inter-material interactions may unpredictably affect transistor electrical characteristics and reliability

The Effects of Nanostructure on the Stability of Nanocomposite Building Materials

February 19, 2017
Author(s)
Marc R. Nyden, Samuel Manzello, Richard H. Harris Jr.
Thermoplastics and composites made from hydrocarbon polymers can improve the affordability, strength-to-weight ratio, and durability of manufactured products. Unfortunately, the use of these materials in buildings and vehicles is limited because of their

MEMS optomechanical accelerometry standards

July 8, 2015
Author(s)
Felipe Guzman, Yiliang Bao, Jason J. Gorman, John R. Lawall, Jacob M. Taylor, Thomas W. LeBrun
… in a Fabry-Pérot resonator. We are building on the advance manufacturing techniques from the semiconductor industry to …
